I want to commend you for what you're doing. It doesn't feel good, but you must remain effective. You can't re-align schemas through Internet comments however, don't burn yourself out.

Hey, man, thanks for the kind words! I enjoy these kinds of conversations, I like to think I'm working towards making the world a better place, no matter how small. If one person resonates with what I've said, I feel accomplished.

I want to thank you for your messages here. I agree with promethil that you need to consoder yourself, i think texts like yours can do quite something good. Sure you won't heal someone with a few messages. However, I was brought to a mindfulness training* mostly by a reddit chain of comments and this helped me, along other things, a lot, getting out of difficult times.

Thanks for your message! I'll take a look at that app, for sure. I'm leaps further than I was, but not where I'd like to be. Hope you have an excellent day, friend!
